“Great location Clean Rooms”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 January 2012
3
people found this review helpful

My family of 5 stayed at Tidelands Caribbean hotel in late august 2011. I must say that the location was perfect for our family. Having three young children we found that being on the boardwalk is perfect for us. The kids love to run out on the beach early in the morning and we can keep an eye on them from our ocean front room. We booked one with a small kitchen and other than it did not have a freezer it was perfect for our needs. The hotel was about ten blocks away from all of the amusements and that made it an easy walk home at night when the kids were exhausted. We called the hotel directly and got a great 5 night special which actually came out cheaper than any online special that we had seen for this hotel. The room was ready upon our early arrival at noon and found that the room was clean and comfortable. I would definitely recommend this hotel.

Room Tip: call the hotel for better specials than online

“So so experience”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 January 2012

person found this review helpful

My husband, myself and daughter have been staying at Tideland for the past four years. The first year we loved it, but yes it has become very run down. I am considering going back again but after reading some reviews, I'm not so sure. We usually stay in an oceanfront room right over Dunk in Donuts. We love to wake up to the view of the water while drinking coffee. The bed is very sunken in, old, and squeaky. The ice machines never work so we accepted three years ago we would be buying ice every day. Whatever. The location is perfect, that's what brings us back. We never had a problem with pool chairs but have never stayed on the weekend. The pool and grill keep us co,among back to. The girl that worked there worked her but off and remembered us every day. Tidelands does not want to lose her!!! They should however lower the prices or do an upgrade. The place is going down fast which is a shame because of the location and potential. Oh and the staff os so unattentive!!! Rude and uncaring. And that's four years of going there!!

“Okay!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 December 2011

We only stayed 2 nights, but they were good. We faced the street and besides the noisy immature boys next door it was great. Everything was clean and the beds were kinda comfy. Wonderful location & a nice trip overall!

Room Tip: Oceanfront is wonderful!

“Great time - again”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 October 2011
1
person found this review helpful

My Husband and I have stayed here for the last 10 years - everytime we've stayed here we have had a great experience. The rooms are not perfect - but they are clean. It isn't the Ritz but it is the best priced hotel this close to the inlet and you get a great view of the ocean and it is a nice big spacious room, the hotel staff is friendly and accomodating.

Room Tip: Ocean View gives you a great balcony if the weather isn't perfect and you still have a great vie...

Mold and peeling paint in room. TV broken - electrical outlets not working. Manager not available during his regular shift. Avoid this poor excuse of a hotel. Mold can be very dangerous!!!!
